Limits on annotations, clips, printing (like any of them let you print a page range or highlight) and a few other things like cross references and last working with multiple pages or documents at the same time.
The best reader for this that I came across was the now-defunct iRex DR1000. It had a tabbed interface which allowed you to open multiple documents and flip between them with a click of the button or a tap of the stylus - truly excellent for working with multiple documents, as is so often necessary for study or research purposes.

The best "single document" PDF experience on a mobile device is, I think, Goodreader on the iPad. It's a superb PDF reader which has outstanding annotation capabilities.
